Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Crescent roll dough
- 16 Cocktail sausages (or mini hot dogs)
- 4 ounces Cheddar cheese, sliced into strips
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled or cut into small pieces
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Shredded Parmesan cheese
- 16 pieces Jalapeño slices (optional)
- 0.5 cup Ranch dressing (for dipping, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 pre-cut triangles.
Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut each triangle in half lengthwise, creating 16 smaller triangles.
Place a strip of cheddar cheese and a few crumbles of bacon on the widest end of each triangle. Add a jalapeño slice if desired for a spicy kick.
Place a cocktail sausage on top of the cheese and bacon, then roll the dough tightly around the filling from the wide end to the narrow end.
Arrange the wrapped pigs in a blanket on the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down.
Brush the tops of the dough with melted butter, and sprinkle garlic powder and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top for extra flavor and crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Optional: Serve with a side of ranch dressing for dipping.
